Confused about "Supports" the AUTO setting

The default is "Auto Generate Support" and its checked but its not detecting overhangs what am I missing.

If I enable "Generate support materials" it then works.

Am I just reading that wrong? the default seems to be no supports? 

And you need both option checked ON?

Correct, by default no supports.  You have to enable the "Generate support materials" option.  I too found it confusing to have to select both options.  Now I've just accept it and enable when needed.  Default settings work pretty well for me, but there are endless examples in the forum of tweaks to optimize supports.
